WJF says, "In a matter of hours, the United Nations General Assembly is poised to surrender 70 years of tradition by passing a counterproductive, brazen, hollow and one-sided resolution that will allow raising the Palestinian flag at the United Nations headquarters in New York. This resolution was timed to coincide with the opening of the General Assembly; specifically the address by PA President Mahmoud Abbas on September 30. It would be the first time a non-member state’s flag would fly at the UN alongside those of member nations.
This is another illustration of the lack of respect for due process and a blatant attempt to hijack the United Nations. This resolution was submitted by the Palestinians and a group of Arab and Muslim states without debate or even so much as a single round of informal consultations among member states. We reject this transparent campaign to score political points — this is not the path to statehood, this is not the way for peace."

Your point is well taken. However, the UN is recognizing them as a state. It is not a nation and as such, unprecedented that their flag will fly there.
ReplyDeleteThey should have the right to have their own country and flag and display it. It is all religious, why can't we all unite and get along instead of always all fighting and dividing so much. The control and power humans want to exercise on some, it is just crazy. We humans do so many stupid things like restricting ourselves too much to go from one place to the next, birds are so much smarter, they live in a world without borders and countries unlike humans. They are smarter.
ReplyDelete”The truth is that Palestine is no more real than Never-Never Land. …Palestine has never existed…as an autonomous entity. It was ruled alternately by Rome, by Islamic and Christian crusaders, by the Ottoman Empire and, briefly, by the British after World War I. The British agreed to restore at least part of the land to the Jewish people as their homeland.”
